H. MATHEMATICS
Many of the general scientific societies (see class i.) have mathematical and other special sections. Among defunct English societies may be mentioned the Mathematical Society, which used to meet in Spitalfields (1717–1845) and possessed a library, and the Cambridge Analytical Society, which published Memoirs (4to, 1813). The London Mathematical Society (1865, incorporated 1894), Proc. (1865, &e.), the Mathematical Assn. (1871); Gazette, and the Edinburgh Mathematical Society (1883), Proc. (1883, &c.), are still flourishing.
